I always have plenty of projects bubbling away.

After 10 years finally getting on and replacing some (original rock hard) seals. Will need at least one bearing though.  ____________________ CBT: 12/06/10, Theory: 22/09/10, Module 1: 09/11/10, Module 2: 19/01/11

Helped my brother-in-law change the knackered floating front discs on his old ZZR600.
Had a test ride on it, for a 33 year old it's actually still a really, really good bike - a comfy doddle to pootle about town on, then a complete hooligan out of town  ____________________ Honda CB125F, Kawasaki ZX6R J1, 1978 Kawasaki KZ650, 1922 Sheffield-Henderson Blackburne grasstrack/sprint |

Saved £40 by buying a standard metal shielded 6305 instead of a 83357A-9 by carefully transferring the oil slinger/retainer ring part from old bearing. Bit of patience and careful equal retentioning/rebending of the curly parts (not sure of name) in order that the ring is retained in the machined groove properly. ____________________ CBT: 12/06/10, Theory: 22/09/10, Module 1: 09/11/10, Module 2: 19/01/11
